Pozole
Monique M.

Basing this review merely on the ready-made food they have. We ordered the pozole, caldo de res, and albondigas de res to eat. Also got the champurrado and the arrow con leche. For all the soups, it came with the toppings, ir. Onion cilantro lemon and/or tortillas. The pozole was rather good, had really good flavor. Meat was cooked nicely. The albondigas tasted good but the broth itself could have been better. The same goes for caldo de res. The champurrado we didnt care for. Had a weird taste. We ordered the larger size but ended up throwing it out. Arrow con leche tasted as expected. I would like to try some of their other foods, but will definitely go back when I begin to crave their pozole again

This has got to be one of the nicest Mexican markets I've ever gone too. They have everything and then some. homemade tortilla station. guacamole, Juices, drinks, tamales, bakery, fish, cheese, meat , flowers & even a sushi station!! clean and beautiful. I'll post pics. today I got a bean & cheese burrito. Nothing extraordinary. Thé cheese inside was good though. $5.99 and bout a cheese & poblano pepper tamale to try later. they have self-checkout too. Diego in the meat section is so nice too!

Fresh jackfruit
Noemi G.

I finally found my favorite fruit I use to frequently eat in Mexico...I love this store it has a lot of great quality fruit and has a lot to see I was craving jackfruit for 3 years so when I seen them in the store i couldn't resist and bought 3 big jackfruit I just cut one open delicious!!!! Very happy Great price for the fruit

So exciting to have a Vallarta in east Modesto. They have a vast and incredible assortment of Latin American food and other goods. Great service, festive vibe and very busy. You will also find hard to get items so my find today was mamonzillos. It is a Colombian fruit which looks like a cluster of little limes, you burst open the green hard skin to find a soft, tangy and sweet slimy flesh that surrounds a pit the size of a marble. There is not a lot of flesh in this fruit but you save the seeds and roast them and add a little salt and they are nutty and delicious. I also found Postobon Apple soda which was one of my favorite sodas as a kid. This place is a vibe and very cool. Great service and awesome anchor to this shopping area.

Disgusting dry burnt chicken tamale

I had a bad experience at this location. I buy tamales every other week for work, usually Chicken with Green sauce. I just bought 6 to take to work this week and they were horrible! The meat was Burnt and super dry! It was disappointing and very disgusting. The manager Maricella was very rude and not understanding. You have lost a customer for life, the pelandale Location has much better customer service and food. This Orangeburg location is not it 2/10

Orange Juice
Lee W.

If you're looking for a Mexican supermarket, this is your place in Modesto. I tried the fresh squeezed orange juice and it tasted really good and it was a good size. then I went to the food bar and I got a pork and cheese, pupusa and rice. It was really good. The rice was just how I like it and the pupusa had good pork and gooey cheese.

Jenny will be here @11:00 yay

My wife had gone in this store once and was impressed with the selection of items. We had some…read morefolks over for a fajita grill so we decided to try it. I was impressed with this place. Clean and the variety is phenomenal. We got chicken fajitas and chicken al pastor. Absolutely fantastic. Our guests loved them. They make fresh guacamole and we bought the spicy one. The chips are made there and they are are thicker and crunchier. I thought they were okay but some folks loved them. Where they nail it is the tortillas. House made there and they are out of this world. More texture and taste than store bought. Loved them. I liked the big assortment of refried beans in cans or packages. We tried the El Salvadorian red beans and I really enjoyed them. Good change of pace. Everyone is friendly and helpful. I bought a bean and cheese burrito on the way out in the food service area. Seemed a tad bit disorganized and slow. Good burrito though.

Personally I have always liked Trader Joe's for their food selection specially their gluten free…read moreoptions however its not limited to that, they have really good, really affordable options for everyone. They also have a nice selection of floral options. Its always nice inside from what I've always experienced people are helpful and friendly and I've never had to wait in line for an extended period of time, everything is pretty easy to find and the store is always clean and open and bright. I always enjoy my trips to Trader Joe's, they also make it easy if my item is out of stock to make sure I have a way to get it in the future. I was told to call ahead and they will reserve the item for me for the day I plan to come by (since I live out of town) and to make sure the item is in stock.

A lovely grocery store!…read more Trader Joes offers a wide variety of produce, meats, dairy, premade and frozen meals, snacks, and drinks. The have a nice cheese selection which make for great charcuterie boards. All their Trader Joe's branded items are great, but their produce is often lacking. I was looking for some eggplants but they were super soft and already too wrinkled to buy. I also tried to buy some heirloom tomatoes but their Best Buy date was nearly a week before the date I came shopping and were all squishy. This location is horrifically crowded. No matter the time of day, it is super busy and you can barely walk down the aisles. Everyone is bumping into each other and walking the wrong direction, making the shopping experience really miserable. I would love to walk around the store and take time to browse but I cannot bear to stay in there longer than a few minutes because I don't want to get bumped into. The parking experience is similar. There is never any parking and you'll need to circle the lot for probably 10 minutes before you find a space. Regardless, the store is pretty organized and the shelves are well-stocked. I've had mixed experiences with the staff. The majority of the time, the crew members really encapsulate the friendly and kind-hearted nature that Trader Joe's employees are known for. However, my most recent visit was unfortunately different. When asking for my ID for an alcohol purchase, I wasn't even asked. The cashier, without even looking up from bagging very curtly said, "give me your ID." Her demeanor was not welcoming and rubbed me the wrong way a bit. I would recommend those to come here only if they need something in particular and if you have the whole day to spend looking for parking and crawling around the store.

I like going here as I only needed to drive through 1 freeway and I'm on my merry way. Good sized…read moreparking lot so you'll never have to worry about finding a spot to park. There's always carts available for you as they're consistent of emptying the cart return corral. This is a huge warehouse type space where they incorporate fresh produce, fresh meats and seafoods; bulk items, pantry necessities and household goods. It's always well stocked and the prices are affordable. They might not carry a lot of items as most grocery stores does, but they have great inventory of the ones they carry. Checking out, though you might have long lines some days, they're always on top of it. They open new checkout lanes if they see that lines are getting longer. Shoppers also need to follow rules coz even though there were signs that no pets were allowed, People still bring them in and sometimes put them inside the carts. I'm all for bringing in your pets wherever you may please but pls refrain from taking them to any food establishments. Other than that, this place is a great place to get your groceries from and save money at the same time.

WinCo has the best deals!…read more Out of all the local grocery stores in the area, WinCo without a doubt has the best prices. The have an extremely wide food variety with dedicated aisles for Asian and Hispanic flavors. Any obscure or non-big-name-brand that you may not find anywhere else can be found here. There is a large seafood counter and deli (which have both been recently updated). They sell a huge variety of bulk items too! They have everything from nuts to candy to dog food, herbs, pasta, bird seed, and more. There is a bakery that offers some nice fresh items like pastries, rolls, cakes, and bagels. They also do custom cake orders! There's also a hot food section where they sell freshly made fried chicken, flavored wings, tenders, and sides for a super affordable price! WinCo offers a ton of ready to eat meals. Just pop them in the microwave for a quick and large bite. The staff members are very friendly. They build a lovely relationship with the regulars which is great to see. They never show any sense of attitude, even when it gets very busy (which is often). Sometimes the lines can get super long (particularly towards the beginning of the month and in the afternoons). Most of the time, they have plenty of check-out lanes open so the wait isn't too bad. Everything is relatively well-organized. The store is huge but it doesn't feel like a maze trying to find the items you need. The aisles are wide but get congested at times. Since they're open 24/7, it's not too hard to beat the crowds though. If you decide to shop here (which I definitely recommend), note that they don't accept credit cards!

They have a huge selection of Torani syrup's, and a good selection of frozen items, such as goat and beef. Decent selection of produce and dairy products as well. Quality of service: A++ Quality of selections: A Price: very reasonable

A bit unsanitary and noncompetitive prices…read more My dad and I came to check out US Foods CHEF'STORE to compare it to the other nearby bulk foods stores like Costco and Smart & Final. I was unimpressed by this one. As soon as you enter this store, you are met with a very unpleasant, almost rancid, smell. I couldn't quite place my finger on what the smell was, but it was definitely not something you want to smell when you enter a place that sells food. We checked out the produce and meat sections first. The fruits and vegetables seemed fresh. The meat section, however, was a bit concerning. All of the plastic bins where the large cuts of meat were stored were filled with meat juices. Although the refrigerated section was cold, I was still a little concerned about the sanitation. Unless you are truly buying in bulk for a restaurant or event setting, the prices are very comparable, if not more expensive, than other grocery stores like WinCo. The smaller bag of potatoes, for example, was significantly more expensive than the same size bag at Costco. The giant bag of potatoes though, was very cheap in comparison. They definitely have a great variety of items that your typical grocery won't carry though. A lot of the items are unique. The sheer amount of drink/cafe syrups was astounding. They have every single thing you may need for a restaurant from take-out containers to sauce and jelly packets. I am not familiar with the pricing of these items, but this seems like a convenient place to buy them.
